1

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

81% Answer Correctly

polynomial

monomial

quadratic

binomial


Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.


2

Simplify (4a)(3ab) + (5a2)(7b).

65% Answer Correctly
47ab2
47a2b
-23a2b
-23ab2

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

(4a)(3ab) + (5a2)(7b)
(4 x 3)(a x a x b) + (5 x 7)(a2 x b)
(12)(a1+1 x b) + (35)(a2b)
12a2b + 35a2b
47a2b


3

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 0) and (2, -4). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
-1
-2
1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
1

Solution

The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 0) and (2, -4) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-4.0) - (0.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-4}{4} \)
m = -1


4

Which of the following statements about a triangle is not true?

57% Answer Correctly

exterior angle = sum of two adjacent interior angles

perimeter = sum of side lengths

sum of interior angles = 180°

area = ½bh


Solution

A triangle is a three-sided polygon. It has three interior angles that add up to 180° (a + b + c = 180°). An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite (d = b + c). The perimeter of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of its three sides, the height of a triangle is equal to the length from the base to the opposite vertex (angle) and the area equals one-half triangle base x height: a = ½ base x height.


5

If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.

45% Answer Correctly

bisects

midpoints

intersects

trisects


Solution

A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.
